FACTUAL ACTIVITY RECORD · An activity record based on work that took place

Assembling the macOS application release foundation

Aligning signing, entitlements, the bundled helper, and a distribution workflow in one configuration

Activity period:

Purpose

To move the macOS Control Center toward distributable form, the application, bundled helper, signing configuration, and runtime entitlements needed to be aligned in one release setup.

Implementation

The work added the Xcode project, application metadata, entitlements, application icon, and helper-bundling logic, and prepared macOS release workflow to build and package the result. UI and Web wording were also aligned with the distribution target.

The macOS distribution foundation adds an Xcode app target, resource bundle, signing configuration, app icon, and release workflow. It also separates the development launcher from the distributed app through a runtime policy that makes production access read-only when launched in development mode.

What was confirmed

Verification results

Swift, TypeScript, and Web tests and builds passed together with secret, specification, policy, and workflow-syntax audits.

Distribution of a signed artifact, notarization, and installation on a device had not been confirmed by the cutoff.

Basis for completion

This scope was complete when the release source, configuration, and verification procedure formed one candidate.
